Your Schnauzer's Veterinarian

Scheduling a visit with the Veterinarian is one of the first things you should do, after bringing home your new Miniature Schnauzer puppy.

Your veterinarian will perform a physical exam, administer the necessary vaccines,
and address all your questions and concerns. Your Miniature Schnauzer's
vet will offer you the best information on how to properly care for
your Miniature Schnauzer, so he or she stays as healthy as possible for a
very long time.

Prevention is the best medicine

Choosing the right vet is extremely important. Don't forget you are entrusting your Miniature Schnauzer to them.

On
the day of your visit go prepared. Make a list of questions, in
advance, to take with you. Vets rely heavily on not only what they
observe, but the signs and symptoms you tell them your Miniature Schnauzer is experiencing.

Also, don't be shy about asking your veterinarian to further explain anything you don't understand.

It
is crucial you fully understand what the vet is explaining to you. This
is especially true when it comes to the aftercare instructions that
you will need to perform at home.

Remember: Your veterinarian is the best source of health advice for your Miniature Schnauzer.

Annual Veterinary Exams

Your Miniature Schnauzer's annual veterinary visit is very important. Please don't try and save money by skipping your Miniature Schnauzer's routine checkups.
Let's remember our dogs age much faster than we do. One year for your
Miniature Schnauzer is really like going without seeing a doctor for
several years.

Plus, most vets are often able to identify
symptoms early on, before they manifest into large health issues, which
will even be more expensive to treat. In the end, trying to save money
by foregoing the annual exam, could prove to be a very costly
decision.

So, what does the exam entail? Your vet will
weigh your Miniature Schnauzer and check for any parasites
(including fleas, ticks, ear mites, and heart worms). He will also
perform a fecal exam and test on your Miniature Schnauzer to detect for
microscopic gastrointestinal parasites.

dog health tip: It’s a good idea to take a fresh stool sample in with you to be tested for intestinal parasites.

Your vet will administer the proper vaccines and booster shots needed to prevent disease. Be sure to ask your vet about the parvovirus and its symptoms - so you know what to look out for.

Then
he will check you Schnauzer's legs and feet to make sure movement is
pain-free and done with ease, as well as taking note of any damage to
your Schnauzer's pads and nails.
The vet will feel around your Schnauzer's entire body from head to
tail, for proper body weight and size, feeling for any lumps, and
taking note of any area where your dog shows a sign of discomfort.
